Gordon locked up in- anxiety and alarm,

and asked one of his side to' ride o'ver' in

The horse. too, has tolearn his partd
the business, and beer at the right mo-

might be thrown instead of the bull, to
which indeed he is often inferior in
weight. ' '

It' 111 considered disgraceful to have to
loosen the lasso, and to let the bull carry
it all with him. A good band at it will
catch by either leg alone a bull gallop
ing past at any angle. The most difii—
cnlt feat of all is to lasso him around
the quarters when _at full galIOp at the
moment when his hind legs are doubled
up under him. Usually. the noose slips
011‘. and nothing happens; but if it be
thrown precisely at the right instant, his
hind legs are pinned tight up under his
belly, and he is brought to a standstill
in the position of a sitting dog, looking
.indescribably silly in suchan unwanted
position. These and other feats of las-
soing are seen at their best at a hacienda,
on the occasion of the annual hurradero,
when the young bulls are driven in from
the plains, thrown down, . and marked
with a hot 11011 with the initials of their

DAM 01 AN omnmrn‘s'.

An aged couple walked into a promi-
nent drygoods store in Syracuse recently
and asked to look at some carpets.
While the clerk was showing them some
patterns of' mgrains the proprietor of the
store notiwd the old people and, ap-
preaching the clerk. told him to show
them some of their best body Brussels.
As he rolled out several pieces of the
rich carpets the old lady held up her
hands and exclaimed, “Oh, we can't af-
ford tbatl" .The merchant asked her
which pattern she liked best, and as she
said, pointing to one roll, “That is just
lovely,” the merchant asked the size of
the room and told' the clerk to cut and
match the carpet and have it made up in
time for the train on which the old
people were to return. Seeing the blank
look of astonishment that oversprend
their faces, the merchant asked: “ Ain't
your names so and so?” “Yes," they
replied. “Did't you keep a tavern atI
such a time and at such a place! " They
replied in the affirmative. “And didn't
you have a boy, at one time, who tended
bar for you, named-.— -———'-'?” “Yes,
yes; and we have often wondered_what-
ever became of the little cuss. " “ Well. "'
said the merchant, “I am that boy, and
when I tangled bar for you "I stole money
enough from you to carpet your whole
house. .. Take the carpét and say nothing
more about i' "It is needless to add
that they took it.
